Ashes 2013 – 2014 Schedule

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) and Cricket Australia (CA) today announced the schedule for England’s Ashes Test series in Australia in 2013-2014.

The Gabba will once again host the opening Test with further fixtures to follow in Adelaide, Perth, Melbourne and Sydney.

ECB Chief Executive David Collier said: “The historic sporting rivalry between these two countries ensures that there is always intense interest in this tour and all cricket fans will be looking forward to what promises to be one of the major highlights in next year’s sporting calendar.

“With England’s historic triumph in the 2010-11 Ashes series still fresh in the memory, we anticipate there will be significant travelling support for Alastair Cook’s team in Australia next winter and a tremendous atmosphere at each host venue.”

The Ashes Test series will be followed by five one-day internationals and three T20 internationals. The dates and venues for these matches will be announced in due course.
